This is a journal of my vegetable gardens. Skippy was my first dog and he thought the garden was his, even though I did all the work. Now Suzie and Charley follow in his footsteps. We're located near Boston (USDA zone 6A). I have a community plot, a backyard vegetable garden, fruit trees, berry bushes, chickens, and bees. I use sustainable organic methods and do my best to grow all of my family's vegetables myself.

birds at the feeders after the blizzard

I filled the feeders this morning and the birds went crazy! I've never seen so much action and so many different types of birds. We got about 10 inches of snow in the blizzard that came through yesterday and last night. Less than the 2+ feet some areas near us got. But the birds here were hungry!

What fantastic photos Kathy. Such beautiful birds. We have 2 feeding stations in our garden, 1 near the kitchen window which I love as I can watch the birds feed while doing boring dish washing and the other at the end of the garden. Poor birds have to work so hard in all weathers to keep fed and healthy.Marian (LondonUK)

Lovely, lovely birds <3I moved to Seattle from Boston and we don't have cardinals here but I fell in love with the blue-jays here. They have punk hair ..lol.. All our feeders are full and we have regulars but not as colorful as yours.Have a lovely day,Huli
